Rosatom, PUBLISHED 23.10.2024

At the Rooppur NPP construction site in the People's Republic of Bangladesh (with the ROSATOM Engineering Division being the general designer and general contractor), the reactor assembly has been completed. The work was carried out by specialists from Atomstroyexport JSC, Atomtekhenergo JSC and Rosenergoatom Concern JSC.

The reactor assembly process included installing of reactor internals, such as a shaft and a baffle, loading of fuel assembly simulators, installing of a protective pipes unit and an upper unit, SAMS sensors. The hydraulic testing is to be conducted at the next stage, to check operability of the reactor plant equipment.

"Completion of the reactor assembly and getting prepared for key tests is an important stage to ensure the efficient operation of the future power unit. We are responsible for the safe, uninterrupted and reliable operation of the nuclear power plant being constructed, that is why we monitor carefully each stage of the work, build up our competencies permanently and use advanced methods and technologies that have been tested many times at our construction sites. And finally, this will contribute to sustainable and prosperous energy future for Bangladesh," said Alexey Deriy, Atomstroyexport JSC Vice President for Projects in Bangladesh.
